Mike Isles 583 Posted September 30, 2020 We make our own sauce for the most part but if kids making frozen ravioli for lunch we will have jar sauce on hand. Botticelli is a good jar sauce. It sells in supermarket for $6.98 per jar. This week on sale buy 1 get 2 free. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's cause it is. Not even close actually. Rao's smokes any and all sauce in a jar. Costco has 2 32 oz bottles of the marinara for 10.99 near my house in Michigan.  That's a fantastic deal for this stuff.  1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It goes on sale every few weeks around me, and we stock up. For us, retail is usually $7.99, and sale is usually $2-3 off. Even if you are buying it at regular price, the taste is worth the extra few bucks. There are just certain things that are worth paying a bit more...this is one of those things.  1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apparently, Italians can't read because the first post says that the poster usually makes his own (as do others here). But, sometimes, there is a need to go to the jar or, as I said, you can use the jarred stuff to make your own pan sauce.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's really more the experience than it is the food. There are equal or better Italian joints in every major city and many small towns. But the experience is cool.  Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
